His Ex Wife Is A Billionaire

Chapter 258

Torrential rain, shattered rocks, thick mud, dense smoke.

These were the last images Evadne saw before her consciousness slipped away, almost in despair.

But with her last bit of strength, just before disaster struck, she pushed the climber to safety.

Even if there was only a sliver of hope, she wanted her to survive.

If she wasn’t prepared for the danger, she didn’t deserve to be in that outfit and show up in that place. She wasn’t afraid to die. As long as her death had meaning, her journey through this tumultuous world wouldn’t be in vain.

She wasn’t always this brave. Even the thought of death or the memory of her father and her stepmothers taking her for a vaccination would make her cry and cause a fuss. She was just a little girl with a flair for the dramatic.

But then at eleven, she met him here.

His bravery, his resilience, his eyes that guided her like a lighthouse in the deep sea, his willingness to live and die with her despite their fleeting encounter, deeply moved her soul.

She realized for the first time that a person could live this way, burning and blooming for themselves.

Even after she married him and even after he hurt her, she had to admit that.

Thaddeus changed her. He changed her life.

Time passed, stars shifted.

Everything happened so fast, like an avalanche!

Evadne had a long and surreal dream during her brief unconsciousness.

She dreamed of playing under her parents‘ knees, her brothers celebrating her birthday with her.

Cassius hoisted her atop a pile of gift boxes, Arnold sang a slightly off–key Happy Birthday, Bennett held the birthday cake as they blew out the candles together, and Elvis gave her the toy gun she had always wanted.

And Thaddeus.

She remembered fighting alongside him on the battlefield, their lives hanging in the balance.

She remembered the first time she saw him again at her grandfather’s side and how she couldn’t take her eyes off him.
